This set is beautiful and useful. After buying cookware sets that didn't hold up, this was a wonderful addition to my kitchen. When I prepare to cook anything, I reach for this cookware. You can't go wrong with this set.

After using other "wonder" pots and pans that don't require oil, butter etc. Flavorstone doesn't advertise it and you don't need butter or oil when cooking - if you want to aid it for flavor, that is fine.
